Open file to the side in vscode

I use side by side editing often.
It was a hassle opening the file, then clicking on the tab to open to the right.
I found an easier shortcut to open the file in split view from the quick open (⌘P) file list.

  1. Quick open (⌘P) file list.
  2. Highlight the file and press Control + Enter (⌃Enter)
  3. The file will open to the side.

By the way, I'm using macOS.
